The expedition

Two destinations.
One ocean
of memories.

Palau is one of the most extraordinary marine sanctuaries on the planet: whitetip sharks, giant Napoleon wrasse, pristine coral and the legendary Blue Corner that every diver needs to see once in a lifetime.

And just before it, Hawaii: the waters and unique culture of Oahu, the most vibrant island in the Pacific, as the gateway to this expedition.

Dive For Fun created this itinerary for those who don't want to choose. Why not both?
